This cookie policy explains how Brainframe uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and — where applicable — how you can manage your preferences. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to provide information about how the site is used.
1. The Cookies We Use
We use cookies in three categories. The categories reflect their purpose and whether they require your consent before being set.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They do not collect information about you for marketing purposes. They are typically set in response to actions you take — such as setting your privacy preferences or submitting an enquiry form.

Analytical Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information in aggregate form. The data is used to improve how the site functions and to understand which content is most useful to visitors. These cookies are set only when you have consented.

Marketing Cookies
These cookies are set by third-party services we use to understand the effectiveness of our promotional activity. They may be used by those services to build a profile of your interests. These cookies are set only when you have consented.

2. Manage Your Preferences
You may review and update your cookie preferences at any time using the controls below. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for basic site operation. Changes to analytical and marketing preferences take effect immediately and are stored for twelve months.
3. How to Control Cookies Through Your Browser
In addition to the controls above, most browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically choose to block all cookies, accept only certain types, or delete cookies already stored on your device. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect how this website functions.
Guidance on managing cookies in common browsers is available from your browser's help section or from the browser developer's support pages.
4. Third-Party Services
Some cookies on this website are set by third-party services, including Google Analytics, Meta, and Microsoft Advertising. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies, which govern how they use data collected through their cookies. We encourage you to review those policies directly:
- Google: policies.google.com/privacy
- Meta: facebook.com/policy/cookies
- Microsoft: privacy.microsoft.com
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable law. The date at the top of this page indicates the most recent review. If you have questions about the cookies we use, please contact us at [email protected].
